Magento: Which Is The Best Hosting Company?

Nexcess Magento HostingI often get asked for recommendations on which hosting company to choose to host a Magento site. If you want your Magento site to run smoothly and to load fast, you will need a Magento Optimized Hosting service.

There are a lot of choices out there when looking for a hosting company which is optimized for Magento. I didn’t test them all but I did test a few and I’ve had the best experience with Nexcess Magento Hosting so I can definitely recommend them. They have plans starting at $24.95/mth and their most basic plan would fit the bill for most projects.

    Very good recommendation! I use Nexcess as well though I have one of my client’s Magento site hosted with site5 shared hosting and it works very well there for much cheaper price. So that’s also a good option for a lot of people.

    I don’t have any experience with them – do they provide good support for Magento? Are they helpful when it comes to Magento upgrades or installations?

    Regarding performance the best is to simply compare how fast your Magento site loads with different hosts – most hosts offer a free trial period which you can use to compare performance. Here is a good tool you can use (it’s free): http://tools.pingdom.com/

    I hope this helps!
